The fits are different, with the short sleeve being a much more slim/trim fit. I bought both 1-2 years ago, and the garment measurements for both were accurate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-breton-sizing#post-2144425 Wed, 16 Sep 2020 16:13:20 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 2144425@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mine's from a few years ago now so I don't know how helpful this is, but compared to Loft or most US brands, they run smaller. They usually do well with their actual garment measurements which are available on their website.</p> <p>LL Bean has some classic ones if that's the vibe you're going for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-breton-sizing#post-2144423 Wed, 16 Sep 2020 16:09:52 +0000 Lesley 2144423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Something's definitely weird! On the website in the B&amp;W the sleeves look just to the wrist. The ones with the rainbow trim look crazy long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-breton-sizing#post-2144412 Wed, 16 Sep 2020 15:40:46 +0000 Angie 2144412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have not liked Boden’s Breton tees for a couple of seasons. Sleeves are off. Their Breton knitwear on the other hand is great! </p> <p>BR does better Bretons at a price. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-breton-sizing#post-2144410 Wed, 16 Sep 2020 15:32:19 +0000 Lesley 2144410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is confirming my fears, based on the comments on the sizing on Boden't site. I know Angie would have some wisdom on it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-breton-sizing#post-2144386 Wed, 16 Sep 2020 14:53:24 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2144386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had one but gave up on it because the neckline would never lie flat but always pulled across the shoulders </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-breton-sizing#post-2144385 Wed, 16 Sep 2020 14:45:35 +0000 unfrumped 2144385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t know that their different styles all fit the same.<br /> I got this top and had to finally go up to size 8, compared to sz 4 in a dress or button- front last year. Admittedly this particular top is cut for a closer fit, which I did want, but sleeves were very tight. So probably not the same as their regular Bretons. </p> <p>Angie is the Boden expert! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-breton-sizing#post-2144368 Wed, 16 Sep 2020 13:44:06 +0000 Laurie 2144368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got my first Boden Breton this summer, and I don't love the fit. I have a problem with Boden's sleeves in general - on coats, and even with this tee. I find them constricting. The shirt is relatively long on my 5'4" short-waisted figure, and the sleeves are an inch too long for me. I wanted to love this shirt!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-breton-sizing#post-2144364 Wed, 16 Sep 2020 13:36:21 +0000 Lesley 2144364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry if I've asked this before! How do these tees fit? I usually wear an M at Loft and like a roomy fit, so I am deciding between a 6 (as the truefit recommended) and an 8. My worry is that I'm short, so when I size up I often end up with shirts that are too big in the shoulder/arm seam and then tight in the body. Thank you! </p>
